Description
Predicted to have ATP binding activity; actin filament binding activity; and motor activity. Involved in embryonic skeletal system development; response to activity; and skeletal muscle fiber development. Predicted to localize to myosin complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in disease of cellular proliferation; distal arthrogryposis type 2A; distal arthrogryposis type 2B1; distal arthrogryposis type 2B3; and distal arthrogryposis type 7. Is expressed in fin; musculature system; pharyngeal arch; and trunk. Orthologous to several human genes including MYH1 (myosin heavy chain 1); MYH4 (myosin heavy chain 4); and MYH8 (myosin heavy chain 8).
